OSHA Form 300A Posting Requirements Begin Feb. 1

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires covered employers to post OSHA Form 300A each year from Feb. 1 through April 30. Form 300A, the “Summary of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses,” must be completed by Feb. 1 using data from the preceding calendar year.

OSHA’s recordkeeping requirements do not apply to employers with 10 or fewer employees or those classified within partially exempt industries.

Severe Injury Reporting

Employers must report any employee fatality within eight hours and any amputation, loss of an eye, or inpatient hospitalization within 24 hours.

Required Employer Actions

Beginning Feb. 1, employers subject to OSHA recordkeeping rules must post a completed Form 300A in a prominent location at each establishment where employee notices are typically displayed. The posting must remain visible, intact, and unobstructed through April 30.
